WPF TabControl with Overflow Icons

Question

I have 7 tabitems in my tabcontrol and the width of the tabcontrol is only 500. Therefore the tabitems are displayed in 3 rows. I want it to be shown in a dropdown at the end of the tabcontrol just like an overflow tabcontrol. How can I create it?

Answer 1

take a look here on CodeProject. I am thinking this will do what you want. Basically all you have to do is make a control template for your tab control.
